Conservative Association schedules emergency motion of No Confidence in the Prime Minister

If you needed further signs of the extraordinary levels of discontent inside the Conservative Party at the moment, check out this tweet from the Chairman of Clwyd South Conservative Association:

I can’t think of the last time something like this was proposed at grassroots level. Conservative Associations are not naturally rebellious, but unhappiness with the Prime Minister is provoking remarkable responses. This motion, publicly backed by an association chairman, is one such response.

And remember: Clwyd South is considered a target seat by CCHQ, with Labour majorities below 3,000 in 2010 and 2015. If this motion passes, it is a serious message from the very activists the Conservative Party needs on board in order to win a majority.
